Twilight's Kristen Stewart under fire for rape comments

Kristen Stewart has apologized for a printed comment in which she referred to feeling "raped" when asked about the pressures of being a Hollywood starlet.

Kristen Stewart, star of the phenomenally successful "Twilight" films, apologized today for recent comments in an interview with Britain's Elle magazine in which she likened the constant presence of photographers to sexual assault.

As Access Hollywood reports, the young star who plays Bella in the popular vampire series has stated that she "...made an enormous mistake..." when she likened Paparazzi presence to rape.

The actress's comments in Elle caused a web-wide backlash as some viewed them as inappropriate and insensitive to survivals of actual sexual assault.
